Last month we discussed composite decking options for your outdoor relaxation and hosting. What if we told you that experience could be enhanced even further? As much as we love a sunny day, the option of having shade is always a welcome one. That’s where SunPro awnings come in. These retractable devices allow you to take refuge from the sun without being cooped up indoors. Their combination of energy efficiency, UV protection, durability, and more make them a crucial part of your outdoor living space!
Energy Efficient Deck Awnings
Believe it or not, a retractable awning can work wonders for your indoor temperatures. Picture a sunny July day with the sun blasting through your sliding glass doors and windows. It’s not just blinding; it’s making the temperature in the room rise a considerable amount. Not only is it uncomfortable, but it will likely kick your air conditioning into overdrive and jack up your energy bill.
On these days, wouldn’t it be nice to alleviate the discomfort and skyrocketing costs with the simple press of a button? On the cooler days and throughout the winter, you can keep your deck awning stowed to let that light in without the temperature fluctuating!
UV Protection
Too much of anything can be harmful, and the sun is no exception. Yes, it feels great to be out in all that natural light and fresh air, but overexposure can lead to sunburns and, in the long run, risk of skin cancer. So be smart about it! Taking refuge in the shade can limit exposure to UV rays and literally save your skin, so extend that awning and cool off for a bit!
While we’re at it, we’d be remiss if we didn’t highlight the benefit of awnings on your deck furniture. While it’s meant to endure the outdoors, protecting it from constant sun fading can only extend its life further. Besides, it’s nice to be able to walk onto your deck and immediately sit down in a chair that won’t scorch your backside.
Retractable Awnings That Last
These things aren’t meant to be replaced every year; they’re in it for the long haul! SunPro doesn’t cut corners on materials, so you can be sure you’re getting a product that will stand the test of time. Durable fabrics are supported by equally strong metals and electrical components to create a perfect blend of convenience and fortification that you’ll be confident in!
Of course, sometimes the unforeseen happens. Trees can fall on houses and the neighbor’s trampoline could pay you a visit in the middle of a storm. If your awning gets damaged, we’re on standby to come assess the damage and make it right!
Make It Yours
When everything looks the same, life can get boring. Imagine walking out onto your deck, looking to the right or left, and seeing house after house with identical decks and awnings. Luckily, there are plenty of options available for anyone who wants to add a personal touch to their awning:
- Fabric Colors: Choose from over thirty different fabric options that include solid colors and striped patterns
- Frames: SunPro offers four frame colors. Choose between white, black, bronze, and beige to help your retractable awning complement your deck and house perfectly!
- Valances: Whether you want straight or seawave, the choice is yours. These valances are easily removable, as well!
With so many customization options, that uniformity from deck to deck won’t be anything to worry about!
Keeping It Cost-Effective
The energy savings we discussed earlier are enough to make this a worthwhile investment; it’ll pay itself off before you know it! Now, when you add in the maintenance costs that you’ll avoid by choosing the best in the business, your investment goes even further. Due to SunPro’s commitment to quality materials, you won’t need to be calling for repairs anytime soon!
